Facebook is allowing anti-Christian extremists freedom to peddle hate despite closing down accounts of far-right and anti-Semitic leaders, MailOnline can reveal.
The social media giant this week said it had shut down profiles belonging to Alex Jones and Milo Yiannopoulos were thrown off Facebook, along with Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan and the white nationalist Paul Nehlen, saying they had violated its policies against dangerous individuals and organizations.
But the company was today accused of hypocrisy when hordes of anti-Christian fanatics and anti-Semites are allowed to function freely on the site despite a raft complaints.
They say hate preachers like the Pakistani cleric Khadim Hussain Rizvi – spiritual leader of the extremist group Tehreek-e-Labbaik – spreads anti-Christian rhetoric to thousands of followers on the network.
Rizvi was behind massive demonstrations to demand the death penalty for Asia Bibi, a Christian mother-of-five accused of blasphemy by a Pakistani court and was sentenced to death by hanging in 2010, before being acquitted last year.
He also praised the murder of Muslim shopkeeper Asad Shah by Islamists in Glasgow in 2016.
Fiyaz Mughal, director of the anti-racism group Faith Matters, reported him to Facebook in November 2017 amid concerns that his hatred was influencing British Pakistani communities.
But no action was taken and the fanatic remains active on the social network today.
‘How long can this farce continue when Facebook says it acts and then does not?’ Mr Mughal told MailOnline.
‘How long can violence inspirers have Facebook pages? This man has praised the murderer of a British resident for allegedly ‘blaspheming’.
‘It is like we are back in the barbaric Dark Ages with Facebook giving us spin, whilst the founders lounge in San Francisco, batting away these issues with slick public relations statements.’
Rizvi is not the only Islamist using Facebook to spread his messages of Christian-hatred.
